Impressive, that Ozzie form sharing your formula, and the long test in a normal conditions. Thanks for detailed measurement. Great thumbs up. Thanks

This video is a true academic work, worthy of being included in the annals of a university. Congratulations. I'm really impressed and, of course, I'm already buying the ingredients to clean the chains and then wax them according to your teaching. Thank you very much for providing us with such knowledge and congratulations on your dedication, goodwill and willingness to teach us.

Passion, and dedication, your input is so valuable, specially for people who lives far away and have no easy access to most commercial formulas, well done and thanks so much from Argentina! I'll spread your words...

I've adopted your methods two years ago and have never looked back! Love how clean the drive train on both my bikes remains, not to mention my shower and hands (I live in a flat). Excited to hear you have iterated on the formula, can't wait!

So much effort on this video, every single question that can be answered was answered to the absolute. It takes real guts to put your own creation to the test like this as well. It's truly amazing how such small numbers can add up to such long ride distance on the same chain, I'm usually the very skeptical sort so the fact that you shut up my every question with an answer just did it for me. I'm convinced. I'll be getting a new drivetrain for my mountain bike pretty soon and I'll knock off all that factory lubricant right off, I know that because of the conditions a MTB chain faces the cleaning frequency will probably double, but if i can make a chain last twice as much all the effort will be worthwhile. Thank you very much. I'll make sure to spread this around my biking group as well.

The black residue on the MSW jar is the additives. From MSW's website : "He added a little PTFE (the non-stick coating on your frying pan) and molybdenum disulfide / MoS₂ (dry lube that’s hard to pronounce) to paraffin and published the info for everyone to see".

Absolutely bloody amazing!!! Thank you so much for doing this video, it’s totally blown my mind!!!

I have been using MSW for over a year. >4,000 miles ( 6,437Km) with very little stretch , and for you guys saying you don't want to spend the time, It literally takes less than 25 min to remove, clean and rewax the chain. I must say, I think something is wrong if you got rust on the chain with the MSW. Love your videos, have taught me a lot.

All I can say is your dedication to every video you make is absolutely commendable.... thank you so much for taking the time in making this content for our benefit. 🙌🏽

omg how much work has been done! thank you very much for your efforts!

I Took your old recipe and cut it with MS CV joint grease. The grease is really just a carrier for the Molybdenum Disulphide. This made the wax a little darker but essentially the same. I had to let it stew for a while to get it to blend well.( 1 Hour) Even if all the wax drops off I know that I have M D particles clinging to the metal parts... This has worked out very well for me thus far. Not the best lube in heavy rain and mud but I just take that into account when riding. By far the cleanest and easiest , most cost effective chain lube I have used thus far... no black marks on my leg etc.. Thank you for all you do. Keep the great vids coming

One word, awesome! I felt your dedication, attention to details as well as your passion. Keep it up. 💪🏼

Mind Blown🤯 Well done for the amount of detail and patience that has gone in to this video. Thank You👍🏻😎

Thank you for the big amount of work and time you put into this and share it with us. I really thank you.

I've been using paraffin wax and oil mix for five years now, very happy with the results. Looking forward for the next video of the new formula!

Love this. I can't wait to hear all about the new formula... I've got all the tools, and some of the supplies (I thought) ready and two chains itching to run smoother. Thanks for all the great content!

Thanks a lot for all the effort you put in this series about chain waxing! I've just ordered some PTFE and will give it a try. I'm fed up with chain cleaning after a long ride

This is the best explanation ever. He bough me with the homemade recipe. I go through chains a lot and its time things changes by applying this guy's methods.

While you have great attention to detail and I trust your findings because I've been waxing (also using my own concoction) chains for a few years already, and have similar results, your test has a great flaw that negates all the 'scientific credibility' of the work you have done: it was not done in a controlled environment. Obviously, it is also a blessing... BUT it is entirely possible that only *one* extra-long, extra muddy ride on MSW when wax was stripped off by waterbourne grit and chain began running on grit instead of lubrication accounts for *all* the difference in chain wear, and it is not entirely clear if you new mixture would behave differently if conditions were exactly similar - exactly BECAUSE contamination is so important! I suggest a small change of protocol that will make it truly 'bombproof' - split one chain into two uneven halves (say, 50 links and 52 links), wax one with MSW, an other with your new concoction, note which is which, connect it using two quick links, install and ride. This way you'll have a chain with dissimilar lubrications that shares *exact* real riding conditions.

Yes sir. Thank you for uploading. Always a pleasure. Do you sell this product?

Thank you for these incredible in-depth videos. I'm now totally convinced to try your homebrew chain wax method!

I have been using the old formula wax and have had grate success. I was on a tour ride last week and a lot of people were telling me how nice my chain looked. When I told them it was waxed they were dumbfounded, but when I grabbed my chain and showed them my clean hand they were sold. Looking forward to the new formula. Thanks!

You're using four different chemicals (including water) to clean. I recommend you buy two, which are very cheap: n-Heptane (used in graffiti and sticker removal; “cheap” heptane with small amounts of other alcohols) and 90%+ isopropyl (used to clean sensors; draws water, keep well closed!). No need for a water rinse after those. 50l hobbock ea costs 24€ or less. (You don't need it lab-grade.)

Congratulations! You have made one of the most interesting bicycle tech videos that I've seen in a while now, and I've seen a lot of them! We used to paraffin wax our chains way back in 1984, but it really didn't last too long. I'm eagerly awaiting your homemade recipe, and I will be trying it out in the spring. Cheers from Toronto!

When the home-made wax was removed the solvent was a lighter colour with less sediment at the bottom than the MSW. The chain stretch measurements for the home-made was about the same as with the wax removed. It could be that more of the home-made wax came off the chain during use. That's why the solvent was less discoloured and the measurements were the same before and after cleaning. If the MSW stays on the chain for longer, any dirt it picks up will wear the chain more. Just a thought.

Hi there, cool video and test, but as a product tester for chains and lubes there a few important points that all need to be aware. First - real world testing unfortunately gives extremely ball park results. Having previously real world tested the same lube and same chain in my normal training, i attained anywhere from 4,000km to 6,500km. There are just far too many variables - what load is applied when, what contamination is the chain exposed to too and when, and how long from x contamination exposure to next re-lube / re wax. Certainly for lubricants that are performing at various ends of the spectrum - one will always come up trumps by a notable amount, ie a top lube vs a poor lube - it will be night and day. But for lubricants that may perform in a similar ballpark, real world testing simply provides far too big a ball park to obtain a definitive result, there are simply far far too many uncontrolled variables. If a manufacturer released such a test as proof of its superior performance over competitors, the test would be quickly shot down on many (correct) fronts. Machine controlled testing where same load is run through all test chains, with same amount and type of contamination added and at the same distance, with re lube / re wax also performed at the same intervals etc - this level of control is simply a must. It is also telling that msw chain had some rust on it. Having tested msw rather extensively, and with lots of wet contamination - a chain has never rusted. The testing protocol and Zero Friction Cycling ensures it remains within manufacturer guidelines. If a lubricant is tested outside of manufacturer guidelines, then that is akin to taking a ferarri to a 4wd track and calling it a crap car - one does not get data of any value. MSW is made of lab grade / medical grade paraffin which is refined to contain almost zero mineral oil, as such it does not leave any film or coating on outside of chain. The home blend likely contains some level of mineral oil which softens the feel and also would be more protective for longer periods between re waxes especially if water has been involved. In short - the the msw chain is showing rust spots, the msw chain has been run beyond its recommended treatment lifespan or left for too long a period post wet ride. Following manufacturer instructions one should never experience rusting or oxidation. It would be great for this home blend to be sent to Zero Friction Cycling so that it can be assessed under the same controlled test protocol for proper comparison. Even taking the above into account, it seems likely that the home blend is a very high performing and clean lubricant, and not knowing at the moment (havent seen the how to make video) exactly what it is made of, it may be a very environmentally friendly lubricant. Especially for training, commuting etc, that level of cleanliness, greater wet weather protection, low wear etc - it is something well worthy of a more exacting test. Pls PM Adam at ZFC to discuss having a batch of home blend tested. The real world chain and drive train longevity and ultra low friction has been extensively proven by multiple test bodies in conjunction with huge amounts of real world customer data, it would be great to see this in a proper controlled test - it is highly possible it will be a great choice for many who do not need ultimate speed etc.

Oz didn't organise to send any when had a chance for test, now testing is far too busy to test a diy wax (again see FAQ guide re why). Dont jump on commercial conspiracy crap. Everyone seems hellbent to make basically anything some grand conspiracy these days. If only you say how many crap diy waxes out therex where person has bought x wax for x dollars + delivery, then y ptfe from y place + delivery and then sometimes another additive like tungsten disulphide + delivery, all up they have paid as much or more vs a bag of msw, but have a crap gunky wax because base wax is crap, and it's a palava to get such a wax chain properly clean to start over. Yes many can if they get a good base wax make a wax that is perfectly good, and that beats most lubricants on lbs shelves. Sadly this is not what many diy waxrrs make, nor can they match the wax base of the top waxes, so the total cost to run is almost never lower for a diy wax vs a proven top wax that has a huge amount of genuine R&D and testing behind it. Read the documentnin zfc website call the Oz cycle video where I outline the errors in the seemingly thorough testing. Zfc is independent. The world is a big place. Diy waxing is very very niche. And yet it causes no end of time sucking problems. I would have lost literally hundred of hours of time just answering emails requesting help from around the world from their diy waxing gone wrong. There is no commercial conspiracy. One can spend 50 bucks on a bag of proven super low wear product that will last 10,000km, or one can risk diy. Just if they go diy and it's crap - and so many people end up with that result, well on balance it just seems to do more harm than good vs genuinely awesome products. One should be asking why Oz cycle test for msw was so obviously flawed so as to, in my opinion, deliberately attain a poor result for a great product. Also immersive waxing is only a fraction of zfc business focus, my goodness there is so much more to zfc life than msw or diy waxing. Take the time to investigate zfc perspective with FAQ guide diy wax section and Oz cycle vid document and see then where you think any questionable motives lie.

Can not wait for the new receipt. I already followed your wax advise on two bikes for approx. 6,000km so far. Refreshed the wax after ca. 300km to 400km every week. Result is as you expected. Different strategy to optimise the process is underway e g. removing the chain at 53° out of the wax-bath. This video confirms the long lasting strategy to safe costs with an environmentally friendly hack. As said, the Wippermann Connex so called Bikini-Hack (Chain Link) is awesome. I assume not too many bikers can imagine that this really works - but it does. AGAIN THANK YOU, YOU HELPED ME TO ENJOY RIDING NY BIKES.

I get more drawn into your channel with every watch. Keep up the good work man! Excited for the release of the new recipe!

Waiting 10 months to finish this video and give us a complete result... Thats not often seen here. Thank you a lot for all of your effort! Nice video, next I will watch how to make the wax ;)

Great stuff, love watching your videos!

Awesome! Love the video. Very meticulous/precise.

Have been using the original chain lube recipe for a few years now and been well chuffed with it. Looking forward to the new cleaning method and chain wax video’s, but will have to wait till I’ve used up the existing ingredients I have. Love your video’s.

Love this video. Really enjoy your channel. Keep the data flowing. :-)

Thank you so much! Can't wait to test new formula!

Great video. Eager to see the new formula! Excellent content all around.

Never commented twice on any video, but This deserves 3 consequent comments with Kudos. Hats off sir!

Great work! looking forward to your video with the new formula. Love the channel :)

Point to note: different chains are manufactured with different roller outer diameters. . . so chain measuring tools can be disinformative. . . the measurement from the hanging nails is a truer test. Bit sir, your methodology is excellent!
